Q: hi. I am a 13/f and i started my period about 6 months ago. I play soccer alot and do track in school. I have never used a tampon, only pads. My mom wont bring the subject up and i'm too nervous to ask her how to use it or if I can use them. PLEASE HELP!!!! my soccer tournament is in a few weeks and thats when my next period is supposed to come! any advice on how my mom can bring up the subject? or how i can get the nerve to talk to her about this?? should i just not tell her and just use one?? but i've never used one before and i'm nervous and dont know how to use one. PLEASE HELP!! thank you sooooo much
hey maybe your mom thinks you are fine with using pads? people aren't mind readers although some of the time we wish they were to save us from embarassment. You can suggest to your mom that you would feel more comfortable with a tampon i wouldn't use one during the tournament because it takes a little getting used to. it doesnt hurt but it feels strange and makes you feel like if you move then it might fall out but it wont

thanks, i wont wear it during the tournament.
